Your guide will meet you at Postgården overlooking the old railway station. We take a look at the historic railway station and head towards the harbour, which thousands of passengers used in the past. Your guide will tell you about the ferries before the opening of the Little Belt Bridge and how the bridge changed the role of the ferry port.
The opening of the bridge made ferry traffic less economically attractive, reducing the importance of the port as a transport hub. At the same time, the bridge created new opportunities for Fredericia as a central transport and industrial hub, and the ferry port could be used for other purposes.

14 May 1935 was a landmark day in the history of Denmark. The opening of the bridge changed transport across the Little Belt and had a major impact on both the region's infrastructure and economy. Before the bridge's opening, the car ferries between Middelfart and Snoghøj were the primary link between Jutland and Funen for cars and trucks, and played a key role in both passenger and freight transport. The closure of the ferries took on great importance for both cities. The tour ends at Bridgewalking, where you can experience the exhibition about the bridge's construction.
